What a session actually looks like
A search term audit in Claude, from prompt to approved change. Your AI finds the operation, runs the report, proposes the fix, and waits for you.

Example session. Claude uses Markifact's real Google Ads tools (gads_get_report, gads_add_negative_keywords_to_ad_groups); write operations always stop for your approval.
Which Google Ads MCP option is right for you?
Google open-sourced a read-only MCP server in October 2025, open-source projects exist on GitHub, and Markifact is the managed MCP layer built for marketers and agencies. Here's how to pick.
Official Google Ads MCP
First-party, free, read-only
Choose it if
- You only need GAQL reporting queries from an AI client
- You're a developer with a Google Ads developer token and a Cloud project, and don't mind running it yourself
Open-source MCPs
Free, self-hosted, full control
Choose it if
- You're technical and want to own hosting, credentials, and maintenance
- You're comfortable vetting which project is still maintained
Markifact
Managed, multi-platform, approval-based
Choose it if
- You want the AI to act: campaigns, budgets, and keywords, not just reports
- You run multiple accounts or clients and want to skip the developer token entirely
- You want every write held for your approval before it goes live
| Capability | Markifact | Official Google Ads MCP | Open-source MCPs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Setup | Managed setup with OAuth | Local server setup for developers | Requires hosting, credentials, and configuration |
| Authentication | OAuth handled by Markifact | Requires a developer token, OAuth credentials, and a Google Cloud project | Requires your own OAuth app, developer token, and secret handling |
| Best for | Marketers, agencies, and teams managing real ad work | Developers who want to run a local Google Ads API server | Technical teams who want full control |
| Google Ads reporting | Campaign, ad group, ad, keyword, search term, asset, conversion, and account-level reporting | Google Ads API reporting through a local server | Depends on implementation and maintained fields |
| Multiple ad accounts | Built for multi-account and agency workflows | Developer-managed account access | Usually requires custom routing and configuration |
| Write actions | Create and update campaigns, ads, keywords, budgets, bidding, and negative keywords | Developer-oriented Google Ads API actions | Often read-heavy, incomplete, or too broad for AI client context |
| Approval controls | Approval-based actions before changes go live | You design the guardrails around the local server | You need to build this yourself |
| Campaign types | Search, Display, Shopping, Performance Max, and reporting workflows where supported | Depends on Google Ads API coverage and local implementation | Depends on implementation |
| Beyond Google Ads | Meta Ads, TikTok Ads, LinkedIn Ads, GA4, Sheets, Slack, and more | Google Ads only | Usually Google Ads only unless extended |
| Maintenance | Handled by Markifact | You maintain the local service, Cloud project, developer token, and API updates | You maintain hosting, auth, API changes, and errors |
| Who should choose it | Teams who want production-ready marketing execution | Developers comfortable managing Google Ads API setup locally | Technical teams who want to build and maintain their own server |
